Lips have not needed filler again
WORTH IT$1,685
I have not gotten filler in years. I am happy with my 4mm lip implants, and they do not bother me nor do they even cross my mind. I am so pleased I got this done. Never once have I wished I had gone 5mm, the 4mm was right for me.

Very Happy with 4 mm permalip, years later!
As the years have gone by, I am still very very happy. 4 mm was the perfect choice. What a difference it has made in the proportionality of my lips. I no longer ever need lip filler. Even with no makeup at all my lips look great, but my favorite thing to do is line my lips from the outer corners into the center in a swooping motion to round them out, and use a nude lipstick. Make up is more fun with nice proportional lips!
BTW, I still don't regret not getting 5mm. I am happy with 4 mm

You look great! It is sooo nice to hear from someone that has had them for a while, puts me a little more at ease about the longevity of this procedure.

Any insight into why the 4mm looks so big for you!? It looks like 5mm. 4mm on some other people doesn't make much of a difference. I wonder if it's because your top lip was so thin to start or because of placement? I dont know.
My top lip is also very thin but I'm happy with my bottom lip so I thought I'd get just 4mm in my top and nothing in bottom because ive heard too many stories about it shifting around or looking /feeling unnatural on the bottom. You're making me wonder though if I should just be starting with 3mm in order to have it look natural..

Still happy 2 years later
I just want to again say how incredibly happy I am with my choice to have 4mm permalip implants. It has made a big impact on how I feel good about the way I look. My smile is much more balanced looking to me, than when my upper lip would essentially vanish.
I do want to note one thing which you can see in the photo here. My lip implant, for years, has been heavily sided on the right of my upper lip (bottom lip implant is more balanced). If I squeeze the left upper lip, there is implant in that side but the thinnest part and the larger bulk is to the right. Does this bother me? yes and no. It is a bit weird... but the results are still favorable. When I smile my upper lip is nice, so that is all I care about. I just wanted to note this. I think a very OCD person would hate it. I don't care too much.. it's worth it for the nicer smile.
Additional note, I never wish for a 5mm. I think 4mm was the right size for me!
